Correct me if I'm wrong, Mr. Brison: I thought you were asking if there was precedent for what we're doing with respect to the motion today.
With respect to the motion today, this will allow motions between regular scheduled time for pre-budget consultations, which in the past it has not, so in that sense there is a difference between this motion and that motion.
With respect to the concern from some of the members of the opposition, it's that if they have a motion to bring forward and we have a number of pre-budget consultation meetings that have been allocated, it may be a number of days before they could raise a motion before the committee. That's why I thought that the three parties had agreed to this motion.
They are not exactly the same. Am I fair in my understanding, Mr. Brison, that you wanted to know that this motion didn't come out of thin air and that there was a precedent for doing a motion like this?
